NOTE TO READER

.This list of evidence that Europeans and Americans have a long history of contact was originally presented at

the Conference on Ancient America,

October 7, 8, 9,

2005 at Big Bay Michigan.

Since then the format was changed to break out the evidence that can be attributed to Ancient Norse, the Alban cultures, and the Mediterranean cultures..The Ancient Norse evidence is defined as any evidence indicating Norse Culture before 535, the explosion of Krakatoa. The rune stones in the Arkansas River valley fall into that era..The Alban classification includes all of the evidence that may have come from Ireland and the British Isles. Albans, Welsh and Celtic are major peoples who lived in that area, but their close interrelationships created complications for dividing the evidence into separate cultures. The ancient evidence was not separated..In the same manner, evidence associated with the Phoenicians, Iberians, Libyans, Egyptians, Hebrews and others has been grouped under the Mediterranean heading..The assignment of evidence to a particular culture is made more difficult because the history of the relationships of the sea peoples around Europe is vague. Sea people, because of their environment, are rovers and traders. Some of the evidence found in America indicates that the sea people may have learned from each other. Thus a Roman carving found in America may have been carried by an Alban who sailed on both Phoenician ships (to and from Alba) and Norse ships (To America) Pytheas, a Greek in 330 BC, did not make it to America, but he wrote about such a trip as far as Iceland..The list was originally planned to show only evidence for Norse in Ancient America. Reider T. Sherwin wrote in volume four of the Viking and the Red Man that “The Lenape language is Old Norse.” So, the list is limited to only the evidence in the area of North America occupied by the Lenape speaking people. Two thirds of North America, central and south America is not included. This list may represent only one ninth (1/9) of the evidence that Europeans were in Ancient America..The current estimate is that there is still about five (5) times the evidence than what is included in this list. Please communicate remarks and especially sources of evidence not yet listed via the comments.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - .

That city is in TURKEY.
